She discusses how causal inference, developed to move beyond simple correlations, can support explainability, generalization and action, and proposes a causal feature selection for out-of-distribution prediction with latent confounders, using causal invariance to make predictions in a new environment. The work is in collaboration with PhD student Théotime Le Goff and is hosted by Barbara Bravi.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/london/events/biomathematics-seminar-emilie-devijver-universite-grenoble-a-106233/", "official_url": "https://www.imperial.ac.uk/events/216141/biomathematics-seminar-emilie-devijver-universite-grenoble-alpes/", "image": ""}]}
